A sprawling construction project of Stanford Medicine’s hospital system, School of Medicine and infrastructure is almost finished, according to an article on The Stanford Daily website.

The project includes updating the School of Medicine with new labs, replacing the Edwards, Lane, Alway and Grant buildings and reopening Welch Road as a two-way thoroughfare. 

The project also saw expansion of the Lucille Packard Children’s Hospital and renovation of the Hoover Pavilion healthcare building.

The new hospital was built in accordance with California’s seismic regulations; it will be able to resist earthquakes of an 8.0 magnitude. It will also have robots to deliver items, iPad communication between staff and families, and a drive-through service during flu outbreaks.
